He has always claimed to be “the world’s greatest chiropractor.” This probably puts him in a tie with several thousand other chiropractors. His love for God, his family, his nation and his profession have carried him through the tough and easy years. He continues to serve each patient with the passion for helping sick and injured people back towards health – naturally. 85 – 90% of the patients with low back pain, neck pain, headaches and injuries from auto accidents, improper lifting and falls respond to chiropractic care. All he asks is just “give me a chance.”
